Words from the designer Sihel Sinash, aka @thehumbledapper
"I wanted to bring you something unique with a true vintage feel crafted with respect to the newsboy cap heritage and its principals.
This cap style is by far my favorite and has been part of my ensembles ever since I started on my classic style journey back in 2019. You are rarely going to find an outfit of mine where this cap is absent. I particularly like the "big apple” crown combined with a slightly shorter and stiffer brim which accentuates the ovetsized top even more.
This particular style is hard to come along these days so I decided to design my own knowing that many out there just like me, have been hopelessly searching. I am absolutely proud of finally bringing you this product.
Crafted with the highest care to detail and quality, this is my very own homage to the baker boy hat, many call it a newsboy cap or paperboy cap. This one right here is the ”Humble Cap” which comes in two different styles. The camel donegal tweed with shades of green, yellow, rust, powder blue and brown or the cream and black tweed with shades of blue and brown.
This hat style pairs extra well when topping off long overcoats with wide shoulders bringing harmony and balance to your upper body area. Pair it with a tweed sport coat and jeans to create a casual yet refined rugged look. These two colors are what I found to be the most versatile choices when creating my outfits, they work really well with all earthy tones but also lighter or darker shades. The cap will more than surely get you addicted to wearing it and will top off any look with an oomph and attitude.
I am absolutely humbled to share this with the world and looking forward to see you rocking it! Make sure to tag me on instagram with your best looks wearing the hat and use #thehumbledapper when doing so. I will make sure to share it on my platform. My friends this is The Humble Cap"
